Thanks for this.
(1) Do I need to create a new user for Pgbouncer then?
(2) What info goes in the "auth_file" -- the Pgbouncer user/password
or the Postgres user/password?
In any case, I have kept both the user name and passwords the same for
now. But I have not created anything for Pgbouncer specifically other
than to put the info in auth_file. Have I missed a step?
